Objective
[edit | edit source]
The PFIQ-7 is a shortened version of the PFIQ and is used to assess life impact in women with pelvic floor disorders. It includes all of the Incontinence Impact Questionnaire-7 as well as items related to other pelvic floor disorders.[1]
Intended Population
[edit | edit source]
Women with disorders of the pelvic floor including urinary incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, and fecal incontinence.[1]
Method of Use[edit | edit source]
The PFIQ-7 consists of 3 scales of 7 questions each taken from the Urinary Impact Questionnaire, the Pelvic Organ Prolapse Impact Questionnaire, and the Colorectal-Anal Impact Questionnaire. The 3 scales are scored from 0 (least impact) to 100 (greatest impact) and an overall summary score (0 to 300).[1]

Reliability[edit | edit source]
Each of the 3 scales (Urinary Impact Questionnaire, Pelvic Organ Prolapse Impace Questionnaire, and Colorectal-Anal Impact Questionnaire) correlates highly with their long forms (r = .96, r - .96, r = .94, respectively, P< .0001).[1]
Validity[edit | edit source]
The PFIQ-7 demonstrates construct validity as it demonstrates a significant association with appropriate measures of symptom severity and pelvic floor diagnoses.[1]
Responsiveness[edit | edit source]
The PFIQ-7 demonstrated moderate responsiveness with an effect size of .67 and a standardized response mean of .63.[1]
